New research has revealed a connection between high lake levels and an increase in large earthquakes along the Southern San Andreas Fault. Despite the potential to produce a major earthquake, the southern pert of the fault has been relatively quiet for 300 years. A study published in the journal "Nature," looked at 1,000 years of history between lake levels and earthquakes in the area and found an 'astonishing' link. A computer simulation was able to replicate the link, which described a connection between high water level and pressure on tectonic plates. Live, local news from L.A.'s Very Own, KTLA 5
